Objectives

Most existing training resources for VAs are paid, focused on the US market, and scattered in terms of tools and topics. Since training topics can be limited, the responsibility of creating one's own training program falls on the learner, which is suitable only for already independent users. Finally, the quality of existing courses can be difficult to evaluate before taking them, which can be frustrating and discouraging for the learner. That is why we intended to create a free course, focused on the needs of the EU market, offering comprehensive training on most useful technologies and tools, while also including emerging trends to encourage learners to stay informed and promote career development. We offer a course that can redirect more advanced learners to other free resources (for example, from other EU projects) to foster progress after the course and provide a quality course that meets the needs of learners in VET as well as existing entrepreneurs.
